Abstract
A firearm is provided according to the present invention. The firearm can be a striker style firearm having a slide. A trigger contacts a sear block at the front of the striker to fire the firearm. The striker then moves rearward with the slide under operation of the recoil spring and then returns forward. A reset plunger engages the striker during the second part of this process to reset the striker. The trigger has a release lever which is allowed to rotate relative to the rest of the trigger when the striker is reset and the sear block moves the release lever to the rotated position. The release lever rotates back to the ready position as the trigger is released. A slide stop is also provided that is held in place under operation of the recoil spring.
